During the holidays I like to get in extra swimming since I don't have work interfering with my training schedule. But - our Masters team trains at a school district pool which is closed. So, it's Plan B on my own at a nearby health club. I had the whole pool to myself!
I was Just Swimmin Along when my nose was assaulted by the distinct aroma of men's cologne. Polo, I think - REALLY strong - almost headachy strong. Some guy just walked by the pool on his way from the hot tub.
And this was just one guy who never even got in the pool. There's a reason I try to avoid swimming after Noodle Class. The pool really smells then, and the water tastes bad too from all the scented "products" that people don't shower off.
I miss my "normal" pool ...
